What is SLAMMED about?
In the cutthroat high school slam poetry scene of downtown Los Angeles, Drop The Mic Poetry Club’s CompSquad prepares for the Washington D.C. Slam. But when a CompSquad senior is abruptly replaced by a freshman, secrets and insecurities begin to tear the team apart. A dark comedy about ambitious teens who measure their worth in wins, and what happens when it’s not enough.
